5000+ scans done & counting

CT Triphasic Whole Abdomen is an advanced diagnostic imaging technique that uses X-rays to create detailed cross-sectional images of the abdominal area. It involves taking images in three different phases: the arterial phase, the portal venous phase, and the delayed phase. This provides comprehensive information on the blood flow to the organs, the appearance of the organs themselves, and the drainage of the blood. Such a detailed view is crucial for detecting abnormalities and assisting in the management and diagnosis of various abdominal conditions.
